Missus has got into road riding and thought I might get her a bike mount, while there seems to be a plethora of options for iPhones (I guess there are some advantages to a rarely changed form factor) the Android choice seems rather more limited, any one found a good one? She’s got a Motorola Razr i (pretty similar to iPhone 5 in size, maybe I could get away with using an iPhone case?)

Anyone?

top-tube frame bag:

I use one on the mtb and road bike. Keeps the phone out of harm’s way off the handlebars. And is a lot cheaper then the bar-mount brackets.

I have a bar mount for my S3. It wasn’t cheap, but it’s very good – basically waterproof, touch screen works through the cover and very solid. I use it a lot with Osmand for an excellent GPS navigation / track following device.

I’ll try to find which one I got and let you know.

I have a phone mount for my S2 from Here: http://www.buybits.com/Default.aspx £20, does a good job and still going after about 18 months but pretty hammered and held together with gaffa tape now, they’ll do a mount to suit most phones, I reckon the Zip shut weather proof wallet types work best, takes a bit of searching to find the right one. an OK solution, but not stunning…

I also got one of these for the commuter: Bushwhacker Reno from the states took a couple of weeks to arrive and cost a wee bit to get posted, bulkier but about a billion times better than anything else I’ve used for the same job, carries tools, tubes and phone is easily accessed.

I also tried one of those top tube bags from ebay shown above, utter gash! Lasted 2 rides, straps fell apart, and even before that it kept flopping to the side and getting in the way… Avoid!

You’re doing it wrong then. On and off-road, I’ve been using mine for about 2 years now and never had a problem.

Thanks all, found this on Amazon, Endomondo smartphone bike mount

But can’t find any other details

Velocity clip? it would work with the handlebar mount

I’ve got the topeak iphone one and its been spot on – they do different sizes of them too

This is the one I got. As I say, not cheap but can’t fault it so far. The only thing that would be useful would be if there was a slot to plug in the micro USB so I could connect it to an external battery pack.
